I am representing Alfa - Redi at the 3rd meeting of the WIPO Advisory Committee on Enforcement. This is my first time at WIPO, and it is proving to be quite an interesting and eye-opening experience on how international institutions actually work.

I will be blogging more details as they happen. So far we have heard from representatives from Romania, Nigeria and Sri Lanka on their efforts to enforce intellectual property. Most of the enforcement efforts seem to be directed against counterfeiting.

Alfa - Redi has observer status, so I am sitting right at the back of the large room. First there are member states, then other international organisations, and then the observers.
